Bentonville?

If you've never visited Bentonville, Arkansas, you should. My wife and I have lived here over 19 years and although it's always been a nice place to live, it's turned into a wonderful place to visit.
As I sit here in T.H. Benton's Coffee/Deli on the corner of Central and Main, I'm somewhat amazed at how much this place has changed since moving here in June of 1993. Who would have ever believed the original Norman Rockwell painting of Rosie The Riveter, along with numerous other priceless, original works of American Art would be hanging in a truly fabulous world class museum, not much more than a stones throw from the downtown square and the site of Sam Walton's original 5 & 10. I doubt that many local residents in 1993 envisioned a biking/walking/running trail that would take them some 37 miles from Belle Vista, through Bentonville, Rogers and Springdale, south all the way to Fayetteville-the home of the Arkansas Razorbacks. Did anyone ever dream they might one day visit this little town and while here, stop in for a coffee at Star Bucks, shop at 9 West or Cabella's and perhaps attend a broadway play and maybe later, dinner at Ruth's Chris? Probably not.

If you've never visited Bentonville, Arkansas, like Bob The Barker might have said, "Come on down!"....we'll leave one of the street lights on for ya!
